Ancor Standard Duplex Cable - Flat 6/2 - 2x13mm² - Red/Black - 100'

The Ancor Standard Duplex Cable – Flat 6/2 in Red/Black is a marine-grade electrical cable built for the demanding environment of boats and watercraft. After years on the water, any experienced boater knows that reliable wiring is non-negotiable—corroded or failing electrical systems can disable a vessel far from help. This 100-foot spool of duplex cable meets the highest UL Boat Cable standards and is engineered to handle the vibration, moisture, and temperature cycling that smaller recreational and commercial vessels endure daily. Whether you're rewiring a console, running new circuits to auxiliary equipment, or replacing deteriorated factory harnesses, this cable delivers the dependability you need when you're miles from shore.

Built with ultra-flexible Type 3/Class K stranding, the Ancor duplex cable resists fatigue from constant engine vibration and the flexing that occurs during installation and operation. The 6/2 flat configuration—two 13mm² (approximately 6 AWG) conductors—provides the cross-sectional area needed for higher-current circuits while the flat profile allows it to route more easily through tight spaces than round cable. The color-coded red and black insulation simplifies identification and reduces installation errors, a practical detail that matters when you're troubleshooting wiring in poor lighting conditions. Marine-grade insulation resists UV exposure, saltwater corrosion, and petroleum products commonly found in engine compartments, ensuring longevity even in harsh saltwater environments.

This cable is ideal for battery runs, alternator circuits, main distribution feeders, and any marine application where voltage drop over longer distances demands substantial conductor gauge. The 100-foot length accommodates most mid-size vessel electrical projects without the waste of larger spools. Installation requires standard marine-grade connectors and proper crimping techniques—improper termination negates the cable's quality, so invest in quality marine-rated terminals and a proper crimping tool. Compatibility spans nearly all 12V and 24V DC marine electrical systems, from fishing boats and cruisers to workboats and offshore vessels where code compliance and reliability cannot be compromised.
